Annotation Type DefaultValue

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface DefaultValue

Default value annotation used to implement template pattern. Template pattern allows a single set of objects to act as both instance objects and templates. When used as instance objects default values are applied by a generic default value setter using this annotation and self-reflection. When used as templates all non-null values are applied to target instances using the copyTo method.
